How to Edit Themes in Carbide
Most of the new Nokia cell phone models support graphical interfaces, which are otherwise known as themes. Themes can be changed periodically to modify the entire graphical look of your phone including wallpapers, menus, background images, icons and buttons. If you've downloaded a theme but want to edit it to remove or add something, you can use Nokia's theme editor, Carbide.
